Thanks for the feedback! Yes, that annoying halo when a photo has been sharpened…. Oh well! As I’m just starting out editing, I have not yet figured out how to get rid of this annoying problem, but am working on it!
As for the figure of eight, I was trying a new technique that a mate showed me using double ropes. As pointed out the heat generated by the rope can be detrimental, so the rope is set up to run through the crab instead of the usual way…. Not a fan, but still a good thing to know!
My dad, who used to climb in the UK, and has FA’ed many climbs here in the south west of Western Australia, once told me that the correct way of abseiling was to go super slow, so there was no heat build up…
